Beginning in 2000, The National Association of African Americans for Positive Imagery will send an electronic newsletter to its affiliates, members and friends. For those who are not on the Internet, the information is faxed.

The newsletter covers issues related to alcohol, tobacco and marijuana use, abuse and imagery in the Black community, and the positive and negative ways that African Americans are portrayed in mass media, entertainment and advertising. Words to the Wise is designed as a venue for new ideas, provide updates on what is happening with NAAAPI and its affiliates at the grassroots level around the country, and include a calendar of upcoming events. The NAAAPI newsletter will be sent bi-monthly. Special alerts will continue to be sent with breaking news or on major campaigns.

Readers are invited to submit materials for inclusion in "Words to the Wise" . NAAAPI reserves the right to edit submissions for space and clarity. Send information for "Words to the Wise" to the NAAAPI editor at naaapi@msn.com.
